Also agreed, any small to medium bunch of guys can throw together a website and some video footage to make it look like they've got something good.

It takes a LOT of effort to make a good game.

I have been SOOO stoked for this game looking up news for it every day.

So far from interviews/QnA's/Videos/Game play they have everything right.
They seem to have the smartest of addons and ability to change your characters/interface/weapons/armor/wings
Everything is customizable, fresh new story.
The graphics are disgustingly awesome

Combat looks crazy entertaining because of combos (kinda like AoC) Combos make a fight interesting,
-you can break your combo to click that awesome cooldown or use your daeva points
-keep going with the combo to get to the finisher hoping its not broken
_Anyhow thats more choices then press 1 macro for all your dps or pressing 1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,1,1,1.....

The story is freshing but im deft. rolling the elyos. Their terrain reminds me of the classic days playing the "good" final fantasy games.
PvPvE is a fun concept kinda like wintergrasp but more integrated with one and another.

Top things to look forward too in Aion:
1.) Grinding to achieve "hero" title at least once in the game / Pretty much while your a hero your as strong as a raid boss against pvp targets only. When the other faction kills you they reicieve better that normal loot. When your faction keeps you alive the recieve a "hero" buff from what i hear.
2.) Templar tanking, Combos, Daevapoints, Finishers, "Overdrive" like moves.
3.) Professions. From what i have seen there are already "16" professions. 8 while your a human 8 more while your a daeva.
4.) Fighting the Baular in the abyss HAVE YOU SEEN HOW COOL THEY LOOK>> OMg...
5.) Epic warfare for the abyss. In korean beta - a guy on the forums told a story about when he was playing the seperation between elyos and asmodians hated eachother so much that they stopped, helped eachother kill the invading baluar so they could go back to killing one and another without interruptions.

I dunno they just seem to have everything that i could think of.
It will be refreshing to play a new mmo. I love wow but i have spent my time with it.

It probably has the asian style grind which I will /wrists before I ever do a Lineage-like grind again. NEVER AGAIN.

It does.

Nothing will remove my eye from WOW untill Knights of the Old Republic. Looks GREAT so far but little has been revealed about game play and I am terrified and excited all at the same time with the SOE debacle.

I'm waiting for Aion but I'm lusting after NCSoft's game currently in development, Blade & Soul.

I've yet to be impressed by anything NCsoft has been involved with. Gameplay >>>>>> Graphics
